It looks as though installing this 115.10 ESR will be a "new Install" instead of an update.

1) Will I lose my bookmarks, settings, passwords, ect? (My bookmarks have been collecting for years....)

2) If I try this will creating a restore point return me back to the way I was before the attempt?

Thank You All!

Normally, the installer detects your existing data and continues using it. If you aren't confident in the process, you can make a backup of individual data or your entire profile folder. The following article covers the whole folder option:
